H siirolv is a wonderful geological geologi-cal condition divulged in t ho ditter- i out workings and one that should Vic very productive of large ore bodies in the limo beds parallel to the several sev-eral tissures and porphyry dikes as I widl as in the tissures, not alone at depth in the shaft, but also from crn:-soutting on the different prcs- , ent le els in the shaft, where there are t lion sands of feet of drifting done parallel to the lissure system , and porphyry dikes, without any crosscutting. as well as in tho L'ali-loiiiia L'ali-loiiiia and the ( 'omstock tunnels, , where the same conditions prevail. ; To Sink Big Shaft. The possibilities for tho future i will be great I v enhanced by tho .-.inking of the three compartment i consolidated shaft, which is one of the best in the district, being all timbered with lxl-inch timbers to the -loll -foot level. Work was discontinued dis-continued at this level in the winter win-ter of l'.Hi:t and 1'MH on account of an excessive amount of surface , va t or being encount erod. It is i now found 1 ha t outside of tho surface sur-face water, which can be controlled and pumped from the "JoO-foot 1 level, the shaft is practically dry and si ti k big ran now he continued without any difficulty.

The possibilities for tho future of this property are of such magnitude that it has to bo seen and studied before they can be fully realize'. Equipment Excellent. The property is well equipped with boarding houses, cottages and i-abins to accommodate a largu number num-ber of men, an u p-to-da to mill, a first-elas compressor plant and hoist. Orders have been placed for necessary auxiliary equipment, including in-cluding transformers, air pipe, machine ma-chine drills, tools, etc, ami a gang of men under tho superintendence of Peter Kass, who for twenty-rive years has been familiar with and a-1 i e in the development of the I'ark City district, has boon put to work repairing and putting in shape the bo i Idings and mac hi nery preparatory to the installation of the balance of the equipment, and no time will lie lost, or effort spared in getting the property in shape for a v igorous ca mpaign of development develop-ment wonk. as well as getting it in 1 i ue f o r the sh i pm ent of ore, th e smelters having expressed a desire for a tonnage of this ore and the management having agreed to prepare pre-pare to furnish same at an early date. |
